Vehicle recovery

[Cross]

I am busy with a campaign game. Am now busy with the third battle. Had some tanks and armored cars immobilized by enemy fire. Is there a way to recover them? Can I tow them to safety with another vehicle? I suppose that tracks can't be fixed ingame during the battle.

A game turn roughly represents around 3 minutes, so a 30 turn battle is only about 90 minutes. Which is why vehicle recovery and track repair doesn't really fit into the scale of the game.

One thing you can do in campaigns is make a rule that you can purchase enemy AFVs and crewed guns that surrendered, were immobilised or abandoned and ended the battle overrun and undestroyed.

If playing against the AI, the rule could only apply to you, and the challenge is for you to capture enemy vehicles intact. But in a PBEM campaign you also have an incentive to protect (recover) your own immobolised vehicles.

I believe captured vehicles/guns were sometimes called 'trophies'.
